#or just a reoccurring statement character who does eventually show up to cause trouble

Okay. So. Grain has a ring master skin?? Like… Y’know for a circus. It’s this:

And to anyone else who’s listened to TMA and is too far into the TMA/Hermitcraft AUs on ao3… he could make a very good(or at least decent) vaguely stranger-aligned character. Especially with how he’s ‘unknown’ as the man in the chicken costume even though it’s obvious who it is. I mean sure there’s watcher stuff which fits better with the eye, but characters in TMA can sorta be influenced by two entities at once right?? And he started out in minecraft(at least according to how EVO registered skins) as a just slightly-off Link mimic. Grumbot even could be pushed a little to fall in somewhat similarly to the mechanical Turk from 116.

Plus also depending on how you take him becoming a watcher it could even be more of a ‘not-them’ scenario(sorta like the hunger au’s[by definitelynotshouting] way of Grian becoming a watcher- but he’s just killed and replaced outright instead of it being a parasite) and he gets pretty into the theatrical elements of the life series.

Also just the general thing of void eyes and a soul-linked waffle head. And being a watcher but still acting as a player. Just being ever so slightly… off. And the waffle being connected to his being as seen with the whole Mumbo is a potato thing.

Plus since the stranger can dip into the spiral in the antics around it, it could fit with the Mooners and the door stealing(either as something to do with the overlap or due to the stranger and spiral not getting along) and maybe even the rift shenanigans

Like there’s more but it’s 3am so I’ll probably come back to this later

And there are also probably entities that fit him better but this would be fun
